Special Assistant to the President and Senior Director for Climate & Energy

As of today, the United States has a new North Star on climate ambition. Since taking office, President Biden has deployed a paradigm-shifting strategy that has both accelerated decarbonization and also expanded economic opportunity, growth, and job creation. We’ve flipped the script on climate from a conversation about doom and gloom, to one that is fundamentally about hope and possibility, and the promise of economic competitiveness, affordability, and environmental justice. This new target sets an ambitious goal, and recognizes there are multiple paths to reach these targets, and U.S. Federal, state, local, territorial, and Tribal governments have numerous tools available to work with civil society and the private sector to mobilize investment in the years ahead while supporting a stronger, fairer economy. https://lnkd.in/dEbSY3Qc
